Hi everyone! It's Elise here to share a fun Christmas card with you that features the Santa's Helpers stamp set and dies! I really like the punny sentiments that are included in this set!
I chose to use the "Wishing you a Purrfect Christmas" sentiment with the cute kitty decorated in Christmas lights! It's hard to tell from the picture, but I added glossy accents to the light bulbs and star to make them shine a little bit. I also used the paw prints stamps to create a fun background along the bottom edge of the card with some green and red inks! I finished the card by adding some Christmas colored sequins and a white bow. Here is a close up on the kitty and the paw print background:
Before I go we have another sneak peek of the day with second look at the Sunny Sentiments set coming soon. This set includes a second sun image (look familiar?) that can be used with or without the happy face, along with a large cloud and three stars in varying sizes. You're going to love all the happy sentiments in this set perfect for brightening someone's day!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day! :)
Hello there!! Audrey here! Today I have a card to share with you using the little kitten in a stocking image from the Santa's Helpers stamp set! I had my distress inks out, and I was playing around with making my own watercolor-esque patterned paper. I used a bit of Barn Door, Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover to create my striped background. I intended for this card to look like a Christmas package, wrapped in pretty striped paper, with a cute tag hanging from it.
I stamped, colored and die-cut the stocking image using the coordinating Santa's Helpers dies. I used Lucky Clover ink to add some color to the bottom right of the tag for a little more interest, Then I mounted the image onto the tag with foam tape, punched a hole to thread my twine through and tied a bow. I wrapped the twine around the back of the watercolor piece, taped it down with scotch tape and popped the tag up with foam tape before adhering the panel to a red card base. I felt like something was missing so I added some tiny googly eyes to the kitten. I think his wide eyes add a bit of whimsy and it works well with the playful, whimsical striped background.
That's all for me today! I hope you liked my card.
For the sneak peek of the day we have another look at some of the images from the new Rain or Shine stamp set being released on December 26th. You may use this umbrella together with the puppy dog shared earlier, pair it with some clouds or even use it on it's own for bridal and baby shower cards.
Please be sure to stop back by again tomorrow for even more inspiration from the design team! Thanks for stopping by! :)
